That image has a woman, so if we want the horse without a rider, we can influence the image not to have a woman by putting [woman] in the prompt, like this:
`#!bash "A fantastical translucent poney made of water and foam, ethereal, radiant, hyperalism, scottish folklore, digital painting, artstation, concept art, smooth, 8 k frostbite 3 engine, ultra detailed, art by artgerm and greg rutkowski and magali villeneuve [woman]" -s 20 -W 512 -H 768 -C 7.5 -A k_euler_a -S 1654590180`

Getting close - but there's no sense in having a saddle when our horse doesn't have a rider, so we'll add one more negative prompt: [woman blue saddle].

* The only requirement for words to be ignored is that they are in between a pair of square brackets.
* You can provide multiple words within the same bracket.
* You can provide multiple brackets with multiple words in different places of your prompt. That works just fine.
* To improve typical anatomy problems, you can add negative prompts like `[bad anatomy, extra legs, extra arms, extra fingers, poorly drawn hands, poorly drawn feet, disfigured, out of frame, tiling, bad art, deformed, mutated]`.
The InvokeAI prompting language has the following features:
### Attention weighting
Append a word or phrase with `-` or `+`, or a weight between `0` and `2` (`1`=default), to decrease or increase "attention" (= a mix of per-token CFG weighting multiplier and, for `-`, a weighted blend with the prompt without the term).
* single words without parentheses: `a tall thin man picking apricots+`
* single or multiple words with parentheses: `a tall thin man picking (apricots)+``a tall thin man picking (apricots)-``a tall thin man (picking apricots)+``a tall thin man (picking apricots)-`
* more effect with more symbols `a tall thin man (picking apricots)++`
* all of the above with explicit numbers `a tall thin man picking (apricots)1.1``a tall thin man (picking (apricots)1.3)1.1`. (`+` is equivalent to 1.1, `++` is pow(1.1,2), `+++` is pow(1.1,3), etc; `-` means 0.9, `--` means pow(0.9,2), etc.)
* attention also applies to `[unconditioning]` so `a tall thin man picking apricots [(ladder)0.01]` will *very gently* nudge SD away from trying to draw the man on a ladder
Using `-` to reduce apricot-ness:
| `a man picking apricots- from a tree` | `a man picking apricots-- from a tree` | `a man picking apricots--- from a tree` |
| -- | -- | -- |
|  |  |  |
Using `+` to increase apricot-ness:
| `a man picking apricots+ from a tree` | `a man picking apricots++ from a tree` | `a man picking apricots+++ from a tree` | `a man picking apricots++++ from a tree` | `a man picking apricots+++++ from a tree` |
|  |  |  |  |  |
You can also change the balance between different parts of a prompt:
*`("a tall thin man picking apricots", "a tall thin man picking pears").blend(1,1)`
* The existing prompt blending using `:<weight>` will continue to be supported - `("a tall thin man picking apricots", "a tall thin man picking pears").blend(1,1)` is equivalent to `a tall thin man picking apricots:1 a tall thin man picking pears:1` in the old syntax.
* Attention weights can be nested inside blends.
* Non-normalized blends are supported by passing `no_normalize` as an additional argument to the blend weights, eg `("a tall thin man picking apricots", "a tall thin man picking pears").blend(1,-1,no_normalize)`. very fun to explore local maxima in the feature space, but also easy to produce garbage output.
See the section below on "Prompt Blending" for more information about how this works.
*`a ("fluffy cat").swap("smiling dog") eating a hotdog`.
* quotes optional: `a (fluffy cat).swap(smiling dog) eating a hotdog`.
* for single word substitutions parentheses are also optional: `a cat.swap(dog) eating a hotdog`.
* Supports options `s_start`, `s_end`, `t_start`, `t_end` (each 0-1) loosely corresponding to bloc97's `prompt_edit_spatial_start/_end` and `prompt_edit_tokens_start/_end` but with the math swapped to make it easier to intuitively understand.
* Example usage:`a (cat).swap(dog, s_end=0.3) eating a hotdog` - the `s_end` argument means that the "spatial" (self-attention) edit will stop having any effect after 30% (=0.3) of the steps have been done, leaving Stable Diffusion with 70% of the steps where it is free to decide for itself how to reshape the cat-form into a dog form.
* The numbers represent a percentage through the step sequence where the edits should happen. 0 means the start (noisy starting image), 1 is the end (final image).
* For img2img, the step sequence does not start at 0 but instead at (1-strength) - so if strength is 0.7, s_start and s_end must both be greater than 0.3 (1-0.7) to have any effect.
* Convenience option `shape_freedom` (0-1) to specify how much "freedom" Stable Diffusion should have to change the shape of the subject being swapped.
*`a (cat).swap(dog, shape_freedom=0.5) eating a hotdog`.
